Cheoy Lee 36 Trawler Trawler

Best for

• Couples seeking a traditional wood-rich cruising boat
• Owners comfortable maintaining older teak-intensive yachts
• Low-speed inland and coastal cruising

Trade-offs

• Exterior teak and older deck/window systems can demand substantial upkeep
• Heavy displacement and low-speed mission limit performance
• Age, yard practices and owner modifications create significant hull-to-hull variation

Known concerns

• No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.

Inspection focus

• Confirm exact model identity and build year from hull documentation
• Inspect teak decks, cabin-top penetrations, windows and trim for moisture intrusion
• Inspect fuel/water tanks, wiring, plumbing and owner modifications
• Inspect engine cooling, exhaust, mounts, shaft, rudder and keel/skeg
• Verify flybridge, mast and air-draft configuration for intended routes
